You've taken your first step into ~real~ now that you've made that first post.
Look around, Read, say Hello to the others you find here.

Status: offline 		I like to put a specific word at the end of my profile (which I admit I got from reading the forums and someone else mentioning they did that). It says to mention that word - my profile is very long so a lot of people miss it - but if your's isn't too bad try that. It helps point out the folks that are just crusing pix and searching just by names

You just have to think about what you are seeing and reading. If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

There are lots of us real, normal *wg* people on here. You just have to scrape off the nasty fluffy icing to find us.

All of those ads are bogus, as you seem to have found out.

Yah, Level they are bogus.  The goal is to get you to click through.  When you do, CollarMe gets a small amount of dough -- but small amounts from 1000s of clicks = a fairly good amount.  This is a recent addition to CM, you probably note.  I'm torn -- I hate spam and ads, yet I understand the need to fund this site as those of us who use it don't pay a dime for it.

Status: offline 		i deliberately haven't put a photo on my profile, coz i just wanna talk to people who wanna talk to me, as opposed to people who just go on looks.
 
And like akisha, i'm no model, but i'm no moose either, and i'm happily collared, and the last thing i want is for "Doms" just trying it on.

Hope this helps.

luv,

shiv.

For my search, when looking for the real thing, I stick to people I can actualy meet and move to meeting in RL, even if just for coffee somewhere SSC, ASAP! Harder to fool my gut instinct face to face.
